Indian Startup Theranautilus Takes Medical Nanorobots Closer to Human Trials

For root-canal treatment, researchers from IISc and Theranautilus developed tiny helical robots made from silicon dioxide and coated with iron. An externally generated magnetic field can guide the robots through dentinal tubules, microscopic passages inside the tooth where bacteria can remain after conventional treatment.
